It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I know a guy who buys his meals everyday. No, not at a restaurant, but at the grocery store. I've heard you actually save money this was as you only buy what you need to eat for that day. It probably makes sense, and you'll cut down on overspending and over eating.
I know a few people who eat out every single day. Every day and never eat at home. Now one person actually had some kind of disease or issue where their stomach flipped over. I think, but I don't know the details, it had to do with bacteria. This person ate out all of the time, and their doctor recommended that they stop doing that.
I do eat out, but not every day. I think I would not like it. I am not a fan of processed restaurant food. Good restaurant food that I really like just costs too much. Then again some of the greasy spoons which I also really like might cost my health too much.
Recently due to the holiday season I have been out more than usual. I see that restaurants are all packed no matter the time of day. I find it mind boggling because the economy is in such a bad shape. One would think that people would be saving on going out. I think, and there is no science behind this, that it is the one thing people don't save on - eating out. That's just my perception, and it could be I'm just skewed because I am out. Although there are many people I know that are going out all of the time - lunch, breakfast, dinner...then of course to the bar.
I have some friends who went to the bar 3 nights in a row the other day. I know every one's finances are their own business, but who has the kind of coin to be blowing on food and drinks? Could be why the economy is in such bad shape...everyone is charging their food.
Oh well...I'm going out to eat now. I'm going to look at everyone and wonder why they are eating out. I'm a hypocrite that way.
